Pressing enter on any textfield returns button click

I have a simple jFrame with a loginbutton and I'm trying to fire my ActionPerformed event by pressing the enter key. I don't want to press 'tab' first to focus the button but it should fire whenever someone presses the enter key. What am I missing here?

Edit: If it's easier to do it may also fire the event when the focus is on 'PasswordField' since that's the last field that has the focus before pressing the login button

On request. Here's the full code of the loginGUI:

package unive.facturatie.boundary;

import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.JRootPane;
import javax.swing.KeyStroke;
import unive.facturatie.control.LoginManager;

/**

 */
public class LoginGUI extends javax.swing.JFrame {

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JRootPane rootPane = frame.getRootPane();
//JButton inloggenButton = new JButton("Login");
//frame.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(inloggenButton);

/**
 * Creates new form LoginGUI
 */
public LoginGUI() {
    frame.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(inloggenButton);
     try {
        for (javax.swing.UIManager.LookAndFeelInfo info : javax.swing.UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels()) {
            if ("Nimbus".equals(info.getName())) {
                javax.swing.UIManager.setLookAndFeel(info.getClassName());
                break;
            }
        }
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
        java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(LoginGUI.class.getName()).log(java.util.logging.Level.SEVERE, null, ex);

Here's A problem...

Your class extends from JFrame

public class LoginGUI extends javax.swing.JFrame {

But then you create ANOTHER frame within it...

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JRootPane rootPane = frame.getRootPane();

Then in the constrcutor, you register your button against the "fake" reference

public LoginGUI() {
    frame.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(inloggenButton);

UPDATED

This works just fine...

public class TestDefaultButton {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new TestDefaultButton();
    }

    public TestDefaultButton() {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                try {
                    UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
                } catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
                } catch (InstantiationException ex) {
                } catch (IllegalAccessException ex) {
                } catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
                }

                JFrame frame = new JFrame();
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
                frame.add(new TestForm());
                frame.pack();
                frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }

    protected class TestForm extends JPanel {

        private JButton myDefault;
        private JTextField myText;

        public TestForm() {
            myDefault = new JButton("By Default");
            myDefault.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
                @Override
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(TestForm.this, "By default");
                }
            });

            myText = new JTextField(12);

            setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
            GridBagConstraints gbc = new GridBagConstraints();
            gbc.gridx = 0;
            gbc.gridy = 0;
            gbc.insets = new Insets(8, 8, 8, 8);

            add(myText, gbc);

            gbc.gridy++;
            add(myDefault, gbc);
        }

        @Override
        public void addNotify() {
            super.addNotify();
            SwingUtilities.getRootPane(this).setDefaultButton(myDefault);
        }
    }
}

It's quite straightforward:

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JButton btn = new JButton("Login");
frame.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(btn);

That's it. You do not need a KeyListener, registerKeyBoardAction or getKeyStroke... Just set an ActionEvent for your button and set that button as default. Pressing Enter when the window is open will activate the default button.
